And the Egypt forward has now opened up on the understanding he has with the Brazil international.

"He sits next to me in the game, dressing room. He doesn't talk English much to the players. But we talk together maybe everyday,” he told ESPN .

“In the game I think we played together for one year. He gave me, I think, the most assists of the team and I gave him the same. We play close to each other, we know how to play.

"I think when football players play with each other they know how to play. It doesn't matter about the language, it doesn't matter how to talk to each other. But we know each other, we expect the movement from each other."

Liverpool face a crucial encounter at Manchester United this weekend, and know a defeat will hinder their chances of winning the league title this season.

They are currently second, level on points with leaders Manchester City but with a game in hand - and Salah admits that while the pressure is undoubtedly on them, the players are relaxed about their chances of securing glory.

"There is pressure because you want to win the Premier League," he added.

"But now it's more because you're just close to the end, so there is more pressure. But at the end of the day, the next game, the three points, is very important, like the first game of the season.

"But the people don't take it like that. They take it like: 'OK, there's a pressure now'. But in the beginning of the season you need to win the game to get the three points to be here now.

"So now you are top of the table or second and you have one game in hand, so you just need to be calm and play football."
